Meet The Kindness Code

This year’s health. moves. mind.®, powered by Booster theme is The Kindness Code. Throughout the fundraiser, students uncover one new piece of the code each day as they learn six essential life skills: self-awareness, self-control, respect, empathy, perseverance, and leadership.

Through movement, reflection, and real-world acts of kindness, students discover that kindness isn’t something you’re born with — it’s something you can learn, practice, and share.

Get a first look at The Kindness Code and discover how this year’s health. moves. minds. theme inspires students to build kindness, character, and connection.

The Story Behind the Theme

Long ago, people discovered that kindness follows a pattern — a code made up of learnable skills. Over time, pieces of the code were lost. Throughout the week, students rediscover each piece and learn that every act of kindness helps unlock the full message:

Kindness is the Code. You are the Key.

Discover the Six Pieces of the Code

Through health. moves. minds., students explore essential character traits that help them build stronger relationships, make thoughtful decisions, and create positive change in their schools and communities.

This year, students will be introduced to a new “piece” of The Kindness Code each day through an engaging video experience. The learning then continues through standards-aligned lessons, movement activities, reflection, and real-world application — all of which help build lifelong skills.

Self-Awareness

Noticing how you feel, what you need, and what you’re good at.

Self-Control

Stopping, thinking, and choosing your best action.

Respect

Treating yourself, others, and your space with care. 

Empathy

Understanding how someone else feels.

Perseverance

Keeping going even when something is hard.

You are the Key

Every day students move their bodies, strengthen their character, and unlock the next piece of The Kindness Code.

When students complete The Kindness Code journey, they discover one final truth: 

The last piece of the code isn’t another symbol. 

It’s them.

  • Every kind choice.
  • Every encouraging word.
  • Every act of leadership.

Students become the key that brings The Kindness Code to life.
